Sardine Tessellation

These Sardines Jammed into a can, like people in a city too close, like people in a small town up in each others business. I Just like the math in it all, sweet tessellation! I drew this fish which tessellates, my excellent friend Sian Pairaudeau did the computer magic. And so together we made an excellent wallpaper which can be enjoyed, with the culinary stylings of the incomparable Andrey Durbach, at ‘Sardine Can’ in Gastown.

Win And Be Lucky

I entered a raffle at Douglas Udell Gallery, the prize was a 'gallon Jar of hot garlic dill pickles' by Vic Cicansky. The Money was going to the food bank, tickets were five dollars, I bought one for twenty, it's a good cause. I won! I'd like to believe it's because my ticket was four times luckier, but I think it was really just good karma :)

HOW MUCH iS THAT ?
